In Bury Hall
As a convenience to the dormi­tory
men on the campus a kitchen­ette
is being installed in Bury hall.
When complete, the kitchen will
have complete facilities for cook­ing
anything from a hamburger on

Two-Thirds Of
Students Take
Skin Tests
The tuberculin skin tests that
are being conducted at the infirm­ary
are progressing very satisfac­torily,
according to Miss Frances
Sweeney, student health advisor.
This year is the first time that
these tests have been compulsory
to students, in 1937 it being option­al.
According to Miss Sweeney,
about two-thirds of the students
have completed their tests and
readings. Of this number, approx­imately
200 have been advised to
take x-rays to determine whether
they have tuberculosis, for this
test is so sensitive that a positive
reading may result even though
no infection shows in the x-ray.
Although there is no definite in­formation
available about the re­sult
of the x-ray, Mr. Flint o f the
Arizona Public Health Service said
that the indication pointed to the
probability o f veryM ew cases of
tuberculosis.
In 1937, 208 x-rays were given
volunteer students. Of this group,
76.9 per cent were negative and
only two cases remained under ob­servation

Congress To Be
At Minn. U
Rounding out its fifteenth year
o f service and leadership in the
college field, the National Student
Federation will hold its annual
Congress during the coming Christ­mas
holiday at the University of
Minnesota. Several hundred stu­dent
government leaders from col­leges
and universities in every sec­tion
o f the; United States will
assemble, to discuss not only the
problems o f student government
techniques, but lareer issues of the
collegiate world as well. It is ex­pected
that the present threat to
world government will be challeng­ed
by plans to improve democracy
at home through its training
ground—the campus.
Adequately equipped to play
host to a large conventiorl, the
University o f Minnesota will be a
particularly interesting workshop
for the campus leader in the light
o f its recent revisions o f its own
student government setup. The
All-University council, headed by
its president, Rod Lawson, is meet­ing
this week to work up arrange­ments
for the Congress.
December 27 through 31, 1939,
have been announced as tentative
dates o f this Fifteenth Anniversary
N. S. F. A. Congress. Last year
Don Sell was our representative at
the convention.

It was pointed out that there is
no element o f competition between
students on these examinations;
neither will the student’s “ I. Q."
be determined from them. The re­sults
will be used as a basis for
guiding the incoming students in
selecting studies to which they are
best suited and to give them a
basis for adjusting themselves ac­cording
to their abilities.
Dr. Harton and Mr. Harless are
in charge o f administering the
tests.

collegiate world as well. It is ex­pected
that the present threat to
world government will be challeng­ed
by plans to improve democracy
at home through its training
ground—the campus.
Adequately equipped to play
host to a large conventiorl, the
University o f Minnesota will be a
particularly interesting workshop
for the campus leader in the light

its president, Rod Lawson, is meet­ing
this week to work up arrange­ments
for the Congress.
December 27 through 31, 1939,
have been announced as tentative
dates o f this Fifteenth Anniversary
N. S. F. A. Congress. Last year

the convention.
Psy. Tests Given
All Transfers
And Freshmen
Freshmen and transfer students
took their second psychological ex­amination
last Thursday afternoon.
The last test in this series is a
vocational test to be given this
week.
It was pointed out that there is
no element o f competition between
students on these examinations;
neither will the student’s “ I. Q."
be determined from them. The re­sults
will be used as a basis for
guiding the incoming students in
selecting studies to which they are
best suited and to give them a
basis for adjusting themselves ac­cording
to their abilities.
Dr. Harton and Mr. Harless are
in charge o f administering the
tests.
